[email protected] - Oh my gosh I just figured it out.

Okay, all you open source evangelist people: your knee-jerk reaction to come at people who are talking about a problem with whatever commercial software they use and suggest Your Favorite Alternatives™ is exactly like saying “why don’t you just buy a house?” to someone complaining about their landlord.

[email protected] - Actually, to borrow from @DoubleA, it’s worse than that.

It’s like talking to someone who is in a crappy apartment as though they have the agency and skills to stake out a plot of land and build their own home.

You have to be at peace with the fact that some people just want to exist and not worry about so many things. And they still have a right to complain about their situation.

    No you definitely can know.

    Because if your company tells you you should use this software, you do not get a say in what software you use.

    So it is either this, or nothing.

      Funny how we jumped from an implied personal use to an enterprise use all of a sudden.

      To which the same basic rules apply. The added problem on enterprise is that you have legally binding contracts to force the company to stay with a bad software.
